Title: Callary/Bellew Meath info required
Post by: janwil64 on Monday 23 August 10 09:03 BST (UK)

Hi All

I have the following families from Athboy Meath on the 1911 and 1901 census

Owen Callary b 1866  Farmer
Mary wife b 1874

The have the following children between the 1911 and 1901 census

Maggie Callary 1894
Elizabeth (Lillie) Callary 1896
Mary Callary 1899
Eugene Callary 1900 Died b4 the 1911 census
Owen Callary 1900
John Calary 1902
James Callary 1904

Mary, the wife of Owen Callary I believe was Mary Bellew they were married about 1893,

Here is her family

Margaret Bellew 1846 widow in 1901 census and cant find her in 1911

Richard Bellew 1879
Ellen bellew 1882
James bellew 1885

Can anyone tell me how to go any further back on these two families as i'm not use to Irish records. and also are there any other census records.

Cheers

Jan

1901 is the oldest surviving Irish census.

Probably your first step back would be to look for the marriage of the parents (Owen and Mary). The simplest way to do this is to locate a brth cert for one of the children to confirm Mary's maiden surname, and then search for a marriage on the BMD Index between them.

See : Introduction to Irish Records (http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,442233.0.html)

I have a birth certificate (copy) for Mary Callary 20 May 1897 Athboy, Meath. She is my Great Grandmother. If you have any information as to her immediate and extended family I would be interested. Although I note the birth date of the Mary Callary on your list does not match.
